Saturn didn’t fail because of no-haggle pricing, it failed because GM’s other divisions didn’t like how it was operating in a unique way (and initially got a lot of resources when it was highly successful at launch). Later they changed things to operate more like other GM divisions (shared parts and spread out…

The Bel Air is a timeless piece of Americana with broad appeal.

I like the cut of your jib! I guess I am ok with them being hammered 24x7x365 as long as they can’t drive.

We take driving while intoxicated far too leniently all over, this is bad, but too many places still see driving drunk as no more than a social faux pas at worst. We need to start taking it a lot more seriously.

maybe lighting interest dropped because the promised 40k truck evaporated and it quickly turned to 80.  if they could bring back the 40k stripper in any way shape or form it would sell like crazy.  it says 70 now when i look on the site but thats still too high for a point of entry. 

Using the restroom takes a couple minutes. And when I stop for fuel I stop for fuel. I’m not getting food and everything else. And no, it doesn’t take me 20+ minutes to put gas in my car and go tinkle. It takes even less time if I’m not tinkling too.

Filling a tank is defiantly quicker and the people that say that it only takes 15-30 minutes to charge seem to forget that rapid charging tends to be hard on batteries. I’m in the same boat, until the price for them makes sense and can make it the distance I want to go I won’t buy one and most of the time if I am…

just a ten hr train ride... soo tempting.

I live around multiple schools and the justification is that we should slow down to 25mph in these zones. Sure that sounds reasonable.

“he also had a history of speeding offenses”

No dolphin. Take your star.

I’m going to say “No Dolphin” as it has flipper writ large upon it.

Paid $25.00 for a General Admission ticket for Friday at the last F1 race in Detroit in 1988. And it was pretty good.

Maybe we should start reporting EV range at 80% SOC, instead of the maximum range. Especially since the current recommendations by the manufacturers themselves are to not charge your EV to 100% unless you really need to.

... “from an era when Chrysler was financially on the ropes.”

The last thumper I rode was a BSA 441 Victor.  It was set up for dirt roads and such and when you squirted the throttle really hard in second, the power pulses would leave a mark in the dirt. 

Most people can’t charge at home.

If you’re driving hours on end, don’t put the top down.
